I reckon we should make a CC night out of it!

Yeah!!!!

Anyone up for Manfred Mann's Earth Band? Saturday 14th September.

Plenty of notice for those who need to negotiate a pass out.

 

[Yellow Fang]

Snap. Did you read my post just above yours?

I scanned it, but missed that you'd seen them. I noticed you'd seen Shonen Knife who I saw in Brighton around 1990, and also the Dharmas who I have seen around festivals many times. Not as good as the Tofus though.

Birthday Party were bloody fantastic, I must have been about 16/17 when I saw them - Tracy Pew, so we were told, necked a bottle of whiskey before he went on.

That's rock and roll!

As in Blinded by the Light? Davy's on the Road Again? Right on Vern!
I'll check my work diary and book a ticket.

Shepherds Bush Empire, December 2nd 2005, I think. Anyway, we all sang ourselves hoarse. A great gig.

If I had to pick one show I could re-live again, then it would be Ian Dury and the Blockheads from 1979. Never witnessed a better showman or seen a tighter band than that.

Very jealous. Would have loved to have seen him.

 

[Silver Fox]

Rose Royce in the early 80's, Santana in the early 90's. I went to see Carlos again a few years back and whilst still good he'd gone off the boil.

Siouxsie and the Banshees, who were exotic and sinuous and utterly wonderful.

Saw Siouxsie & Banshees at Leeds Uni in the late(??) 80's, went with a couple of Goth friends

I'm jealous. Brian Setzer is one of the last bands on my must-see list that I haven't yet

I take it you mean the 'Brian Setzer Orchestra'???
I'd love to see them too - got a DVD though

Brian Setzer is one of the most underrated guitarists of all time.
